I am so in love with this Breville Juice Fountain and so are my kids. Last week we made tangelo juice to go with our breakfast for dinner and last night we made this delicious Fresh Strawberry Lemonade, or actually Lemon-Limeade. It was a perfect beverage for our beautiful spring evening last night.

I’ve never used an electronic juicer before, but I can tell you I am incredibly pleased with the Breville Juice Fountain Plus. I always imagined juicing to be something difficult and messy, but it was neither.

I can see that we will be experimenting more often with juice concoctions, especially with warmer weather approaching. The whole family loves fresh lemonade and this juicer made the process so fast and simple.

By now most of you have heard about Logan’s picky eating. I can see that this juicer will help us encourage him to try more new fruits and vegetables. Already he thinks it is super cool to help me make fresh juice.

A Few Highlights of the Breville Juice Fountain Plus

Juicing Disc Filter – Stainless steel cutting disc surrounded by Italian made micro mesh filter to extract up to 30% more juice and 40% more vitamins and minerals than other juicers

Large opening - you don’t need to cut most fruits and vegetables up to fit inside the juicer. A whole apple or orange will usually fit in the opening

Easy to use! This was my first time using an electric juicer and I couldn’t believe how easy it was!

Simple clean up. Line the pulp bucket with a plastic grocery or produce bag and discard after use. The rest of the pieces clean easily in the top shelf of the dishwasher after a quick rinse in the sink.

Treat mom to a glass of Fresh Strawberry Lemonade and this Breville Juice Fountain Plus for Mother’s Day this year…or enter for your chance to win one below! I’m Lovin’ It!

Directions:

For the Strawberry Lemon-Limeade

Wash the strawberries and remove the stems, set aside. Remove the peel from the lemon and limes. For the lemons, I cut the top off and peeled as if it were an orange. For the lime I used a paring knife to remove the peel.

Put the strawberries inside the juicer. Place a pitcher on the other end to catch the run off. Run on low speed until all the juice has been removed. Do the same with the lemons and limes.

In a large pitcher, combine 1 recipe simple syrup, the juice from the fruit and 4-6 cups cold water (to taste). Add ice if desired. Garnish with sliced lemons and strawberries. Serve chilled.

For the Simple Syrup

Combine sugar and water in a small saucepan. Place over medium-low heat. Cook and stir until the sugar has dissolved. Remove and let cool.

Ooooh my mom has been asking for this juicer, she loves freshly juiced OJ in the AM. I’m personally in love with the smart grinder. I follow you on FB and Twitter. Will now follow Breville on FB and will share your giveaway link on my page. I hope I can give this juicer to my mom!

wow, this looks so sleek and pretty! i’ve always thought a juicer would be more mess than it was worth, but it sounds like with this one i’d be wrong. while i’d love to try it, of course, i also found an indoor grill (the smart grill) on breville’s website and that’s what i’d choose to try – i’ve never used an indoor grill and always wanted to try one!

Ooo, I’m excited about this giveaway! I’ve been wanting one of these forever. If I were to add another one of their products to my collection it would be the burr grinder. I would give it to my mom, she loves her coffee!

My family has had the Breville Compact Juice Fountain for over a year now – and LOVE it. We juice every day, and it’s the only small appliance that has a permanent home on our countertop…. Well, besides the toaster oven. So I’d have to say the only other Breville appliance I would have my eye on at this point is an upgrade to the juicer – and the toaster oven!!

The Electric Wok would be perfect! My husband and I love to make lots of Asian meals and this would help make them even better. Really, all of their products would be wonderful! Splendid giveaway, by the way. Very generous!

I would love the juicer and it’s on my wish list, but I think I’d also like to have the compact countertop oven. Our horrible 60′s kitchen is soon to be revamped and I’ll be without the big oven for a while. The smart oven would be perfect!

This would be like my dream come true! And your juice looks SO pretty. I love the colors. I’ve really been wanting Breville’s Personal Pie Maker too…. And since I drink so much tea, I would love the One-Touch Tea Maker.

I would love the personal pie maker! We had a juicer once that never came out of the box. This juicer sounds great and we do a lot more whole cooking than we used to and this would be a great addition to the kitchen.

I love your website. I am also interested in winning the juicer. I “stumbled” onto the Pavlova with Raspberries with Lemon Curd. It looks awesome. I think it would be a great treat when we go in the fall to pick raspberries here locally. (shout out to Salman Ranch!) I think I ran across this on foodgawker also.

the juicer is definitely my first choice but i would love to have the Breville deep fryer with the cooling feature too.. One for the angel in my eating habits and one for the devil… deep fried food is sooo bad for you but it tastes sooooo good!!!

I really need to add the 5 qt die cast stand mixer to my kitchen! I know it might not seem possible, but I have a really old mixer and just a seperate mixer with beaters – and that 5 qt cast stand mixer would truly make baking that much better! Thank you again for the give-away!

I would love to have the Die-Cast Programmable Espresso Machine. I already have the Breville Smart Grinder which we use with our French Press, but I am craving espresso and my counter top needs some Café culture.

Oh my gosh. I see why these people let you do this for giveaways. I just spent 30 minutes on their website – too much to choose from. Better than a 30 second commercial! I LOVE their toaster ovens and would like a one-cup coffee maker too.
